Should you walk a dog that lives in the yard: Note for owners
Many people who live in private houses and are dog owners make a serious mistake.
They don't walk their four-legged friends.
The following argument is popular: "Why go for a walk with a dog? After all, the pet is always in the yard anyway."
We will upset such people: it turns out that dogs need to be walked even if they are constantly outdoors, but in a small area.
Why walk a dog that lives in the yard
Yes, such a dog has enough fresh air. The animal has the opportunity to run, jump, and relieve itself.
But at the same time there is no opportunity to learn about the world around us.
But this is very important for the pet and for the development of its mental abilities! The dog needs to receive new information, including information related to space, smells and sounds.
If the dog never leaves the house territory, he will become unhappy.
It is possible that a four-legged friend “locked” in the yard will simply escape.
Earlier we explained why dogs love to fetch sticks.
